As a firearm to hunt with, my doubles are worth every cent I paid for them. On the most part they are old world quality workmanship & materials that to equal in a new gun would cost me many times more $$'s. Good using value I see.
I bought them to use & for my pleasure, not to look good in my estate sale.
My Skimin & Wood live pigeon gun is very worthy to me as a hunting gun. Classic double 1926, 3" chambers 1 1/2 Oz proof.
I have old world feel & quality that shoots heavy & fast 2 3/4 modern loads. I consider that good value.
